Who needs a Baby Planner?

As the number of working parents continues to grow – there are currently more than 50 million working parents in the workforce and rising – so have the time pressures, housework demands and other struggles associated with juggling work and family obligations. Most clients are expecting parents who are working full-time jobs, feel stressed and have no free time, do not live close to relatives for help or already have children and need an extra hand. Single moms or dads, expecting moms on bed rest and new parents who need assistance and support in transitioning to life with a baby.
